happy birthday to stuart! he says this is the first birthday that really feels old to him. maybe it's the almost-30-thing, i guess. but we are happy that we both have the whole weekend off to celebrate!
yesterday morning, i was up and about getting the house clean and normal weekend-type things done so that we could relax for the weekend. stuart finished school around 5pm, and we went out to see a movie (in the theater!). we ended up seeing 'unstoppable,' about a run-away train. it was pretty good. and intense. a lady actually screamed in the movie theater. stuart just likes going to the theater because it's big and loud and he gets to eat a lot of popcorn, but we don't do it often. so, that was a birthday treat.
after, we went to stay at the crowne plaza for the night, just because sleeping in a hotel is more fun than sleeping at home. and the crowne plaza gives a discount to UAMS employees. :) we went swimming in the heated outdoor pool, ordered pizza and ate it in bed while watching 'everybody loves raymond' (another favorite of stu's). this morning we ate breakfast in bed and watched the first harry potter movie and 'america's next top model' (both picked by the birthday boy himself).
on our way home from the hotel, we stopped to get gas and stuart went in to buy himself some birthday candy. :) later this afternoon he is going to watch some duke basketball and eat hot wings, then tonight we're going out to eat steak with the pierce family. so, the birthday boy is getting to do a lot of his favorite activities.
happy birthday, love! you're the best husband in the whole land!
addendum: i forgot one funny detail about stuart's birthday weekend. while we were swimming like little kiddies in the pool at the hotel, stu put his hand up on the side of the pool and got STUNG BY A BEE! what a terribly awful birthday present, eh? besides, what are honeybees doing out in little rock in the middle of wintertime? this is the question stuart continued to ask all weekend.
